This application note describes how to implement an exact linear speed controller for stepper motors. The stepper motor is an electromagnetic device that converts digital pulses into mechanical shaft ...

Bipolar stepper motors are used in many applications, from driving paper through a printer to moving an XY stage in industrial equipment. Typically, the motors are driven and controlled by inexpensive ...

Toshiba Electronics Europe has launched the TB67S579FTG, a next-generation stepper motor driver IC featuring Advanced ...

Here's a simple algorithm that uses conventional microcontroller blocks to control commercially available H-bridges to properly commutate a bipolar stepper motor through a microstepping profile.

Not missing a beat: Here we take a look at why open-loop steppers lose steps, as well as some solutions to the problem. As in the below) half-stepping produces eight steps per electrical rotation — ...

Using pulse outputs from a PLC is a cost-effective way to get simple motion. Most, if not all, PLC manufacturers provide a way to control servos and steppers using a pulse train signal. So when a ...

En route to getting the off-the-peg DC-51 motor speed controller to better suit my small milling machine, I had a go at working out what the circuit is. Approx circuit of DC-51 motor speed controller ...
